That story, which is on the news today underlines the permanent change that our society is going through caused by a mix of recession and Internet shopping. The question to be addressed and alluded to by me is what should be done with the empty space. That's what I've been getting at in threads like this one and the one about what can the Mayor do to prevent Accys further decline.
All his is opportunity for me because I pickup the broken properties at auction to be fixed/repurposed to residential if required. In general the council needs a funded plan, and I don't believe they have one (they had a plan that was not funded) so what now Hyndburn?

As the Mayor's role has been answered and is out of the equation you would be better contacting the town centre manager Rob Grigorjevs. He should be able to enlighten you as to the current plans. If you follow the link you will be able to pick up his email address. When you find out you can enlighten us all
